PAJIH , Juno21 , | Now York Herald Cable
Special to TUB Bni : . | In a speech deliv
ered last Monday at the National Republican
association banquet , M , Jules Ferry accent
uated the declarations ho had previously
tniiOo In the chamber of deputies. Ho was
very energetic in his condemnation of the
ngltntlon In favor of revising the constitu
tion. The Idea of convoking the constitu
ents and modifying the constitution at a tlmo
when republican Institutions wcro exposed
to attack on every hand was said by M. Ferry
to bo nn aberration. The terms In which the
opportunist leader Insisted on the necessity
of concluding pence between the church nnd
ntnto wcro not worthy. It was this part of
his speech In the chamber which most excited
thojro of M. Clomcnccau , but , far from re-
trar.tmg nny of his opinions , M. Ferry reiter
ated his statement , that religion In Franco
represented a great moral force which.the
civil power could not disregard , and with
which it should avoid all quarrels.
As might have been expected , the radicals
have taken umbrage at these declarations ,
and their organs take M. Ferry severely to
task , The Justice , Lantornc nnd o'hor news
papers of tha same shade of opinion declare
n retrograde policy of I'onkincrs can not bo
accepted by the republican party. A re
vision of the constitution is , they say , both
necessary nnd urgent In some Instances.
They pretend that the national assembly was
not qualified to draw up a constitution for
France.
The conservative Journals Join with the
radical organs m criticising M. Ferry's
speech. M. DoCassagnnc Is for once with
M. Clcmcnceau. Accordingly , In his defense
of the existing constitution , M. Kerry has to
deal with radicals , monarchists and Bou-
langlsts. Howover. ho has the , support of
all members of the moderate party , nnd his
programme exactly answers to tbo desire of
the majority of the population , : vs the whole
people of France want not a change of gov
ernment , but order , tranqulllty and religious
tolerance. M. Ferry's language would con
sequently bo well received throughout the
country if his personal situation and remem
brance of his past policy did not detract
Irom Its effect. The conservatives , for their
part , have no confidence in him. In his
mouth liberty of conscience , religious peace
and tolerance are but as ram words , for It
can not bo .forgotten that It was Ferry
who expelled' religious orders from the soil
of Franco ; that it was Ferry nnd the oppor
tunist party who weeded out from the ranks
of the magistracy those who were suspected ,
r with or without reason , of clericalism ; that
os a sop to the Ccrcberus of radicalism the
opportunists adopted the formula , "Lcs
cures nao nil dos , " nnd that regulation of
schools nnd hospitals was in the beginning
tholr work. Nor can It bo forgotten that In
obedience to the injunctions of the radical ? ,
the Ferrys were among the llrst to declare
themselves in favor of a partial revision of
the constitution ; that tholr policy , when they
were in power , was a constant pandering
to radical opinions. If It wcro possible to
believe the opportunists sincere nt this junc
ture , the past might bo forgotten , but they
have not broken tholr faith with the ad
vanced section of the extreme left. Their
camps are still allied in view of the election.
When the requirements of the situation will
force on Ferry's ' partisans to vote for nn ex
pression of the budget , , and for
a revision of the constitution , the moderate
republicans allied with tlio ex-communists i
certainly a curious spectacle.

Pasteur's vaccine as u prcvcntativo against

uso. A number of cheep owners asked to
have ItiO.OOO sheep vaccinated , but M. Pas.
tcur refused to allow It until some settlement
was L'lado with the rabbit question. Public
trials weitt made In Queensland with a view
of proving that pleuro-uneumonla could bo
cured by inoculation , and were said to be n
success.

far to the right on h'ls head. They saun
tered leisurely into the station and boarded
n private car which Vice-President Thomp

bundle of boons and papers under his arm ,
and proceeded Into the station ana down to
the car with rather more haste than the
others had used. Ho was accompanied by
Congressman Buchanan , of New Jersey ,
stout and perspiring. The train was off on

SHAKIKO TIIIXG3 IN INUIANAl'OI.18.
There Is real plo.isuro in true administra
tion circles over the way the civil servieo
commission is shaking things up in Indianap
olis. It is not denied tnat nno of the scan
dals of President Cleveland's administration
was the open defiance Ot the civil service
law by Aqullla Jones. The last civil service
commission white washed the Indianapolis
postmaster , and he wont on us ho had begun
until the close of the last administration.
Even the Now York World admits that the
understanding now is , that the law is not to
bo violated with impunity. The charges
against the postmaster at Troy were.
promptly investigated , and now at India-
nopolis , if the account may bo believed , the
commissioners have gone to the rdot of the
matter. It is believed that there is still
plenty of work to be done by the commission
in Washington , New York , Baltimore and
Philadelphia. President Harrison , the
friends of the administration insist , may
have boon opposed by the self-choson guar
dians of civil service reform anil may not
have been elected on that issue , but ho be
lieves in the reform and will carry it into
effect.

mained .seated in tbo cliair , rxpcctod no violence
lence and was subjected to none , and to no

hensive. All accounts which represent Mr.
Blackburn as pulling my car , or dragging
mo from my ehnlr , or hauling mo unresist
ingly about the room , or represent mo as
begging the protection of the committee , or
or in any way depreciating Mr. Blackburn's
wrath , nro untrue. 1 ho ebullition was moro
ludicrous than dangerous. Of course I un
derstand very well thnt some democrats wish
to intimidate me , and falling in that , to de
grade mo. To do this , it will bo necessary
lor them to adopt some moro clTcctunl plan
than that developed in the committee room
on the 22d of February , or the next aay and
thereafter In the democratic newspapers ,
which gave fictitious accounts of what had
taken place. "

NEW YoitK , Juno 21. The Sun hns nd-
vlcos from Caracas , Venezuela , undbr data
of Juno 10 , stating that the first peaceful
revolution that the republic has over had
has been accomplished. The reign of Our-
nan-Ulancn has ended , The military despot
ism that existed In Venezuela for u quarter
of a century Is auollshod , nnd there are con
stant demonstrations of gratification by nil
classes.
That the situation may bo understood , It
must bo known that General Guznan-Ulnnco ,
since ho first came Into control of
the government In 1STO , has scorned to regard
Venezuela as his own property , to do with na
hodoshcd. Ho has boon the uncrowned
czar , and his government an absolute
despotism. Guznnn-Blauco has filled the
presidential chair every alternate term dur
ing the last nineteen years , nnd between
times has placed In power a dummy , who was
entirely subject to his will. His many nets
of tyranny have awakened hostility that has
only boon suppressed by military force.
Two years ago , at the oxuiratlon of his
presidential term , ho loft thn country nnd
has since resided m Paris. Ucforo
going no gnvo himself credentials
as envoy .ontraordlnnry nnd minister pleni
potentiary to nil European powers. Ho
placed In the presidential chair Dr. IBojas
Paul , ono of the ablest citizens of the repub
lic , who had previously been prominent In
public affairs for ninny years. During the
past year the broach uotxvcon the president
and dictator hat been widening. President
Paul , fearing that Guzrnui would Incite
revolution , began same months ago to grad
ually depose from tholr commands
the loading officers of the army
who were supposed to bo lu
sympathy with the man In Purls nnd re
placed them with men in whom ho had con-
flilcnco. This called out nn Insulting protest
from Guzimti , but Paul was sustained by the
people and did not swerve from his course ,
A steamer which arrived from Europe on
May 27 brought letters from Gimian to the
president of such a character as to bring
matters to a crisis. The following day Ijr.
Paul sent to congress his resignation as'prcs-
idont. * Everyone know ho had received letters
from Paris and had been directed to do what
ho had done. As soon as tboact was known
the people closed their business and sur
rounded the cnpltol , and within an houraftcr
his resignation was received 20.000 men were
shouting themselves lioarso with denuncia
tions of ( ! uznan and praise for Paul. That
night the entire population of Caracas
gathered in the Plaza Washington , whcro
they wore nddrebsed by several orators , who
spoke ttio unanimous sentiment of the com
munity that President Paul should continue
in ofUco regardless of tbo demands of
Guziian-l.ilanco. The following day the pres
ident withdrew his resignation , and after
passing u resolution of confidence in him con
gress adjourned in great haste.
The intentions of Giunan are not known ,
but it Is not thought probable ho will allow
Dr. Paul to .remain In power ft ho can pre
vent It.
